Sunday Afternoon Frozen Yogurt

My husband went for a bike ride, the children were deposited at a birthday party.  I sat down with my new old book, bought at a dreamy used-book store on vacation, and a treat.  This is Baked Rhubarb Frozen Yogurt from yes, Jeni Britton Bauer.  I made it a few weeks ago when rhubarb was plentiful.
 
my mother got me this bookmark in Portugal when I was in middle school - just found it again recently
 

 
It's a very pretty frozen yogurt, with flecks of mauve and chartreuse. Honestly, the children don't like it and that really irritates me, but my husband and I think it's wonderful. 

Jeni says it pairs well with "champagne, a sprinkling of cinnamon, cardamom, or black pepper."  Instead, yesterday, I paired mine with black coffee and a fudgy brownie that my sister made on vacation.  Glorious.

I'd forgotten about Kathleen Norris! I read this book years ago. It was really good.
